For Sale: 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 in Tempe, Arizona for sale in Tempe, AZ
Vehicle Description This week, Canyon State Classics brings to market a beautiful 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL Roadster in Arctic White over Black leather interior.
This car comes to us from its original owner who went to great lengths to get this car and maintain it to a near perfect example before you today.
This 560SL was purchased new through Lober Motors in Chicago, IL in April of 1988.
However the car was not on-sight; Lober Motors had made a dealer trade Bill Anselmi Olds-GMC out of Casper, WY.
The original owner of this car opted to travel to Casper, WY and drive the car back to Chicago herself instead of paying the dealer surcharge on transport.
Since then she has seen to it that the car has been looked after to the highest standard.
The car remained a summer cruiser in IL until the early 2000's when the car was brought to AZ where it has been enjoyed and serviced buy its original owner.
The fit, finish and feel of this car compare to one of half the miles- it is a true testament to how well these cars hold up when they are properly looked after.
The paint and interior are near flawless.
The car has been strictly dealer maintained since 2009 and all suggested items were addressed along the way.
